OrangeReviewStarIt's the attention to details that makes the difference between a beginner's project and a finely crafted piece of woodworking. This title addresses the best techniques for wood joinery, complete with designs for jigs to make the process easier. From miter joints to mortise and tenon to dovetails, each process is well illustrated with superior instruction. Additional information on cutting and use of power tools for joinery is included. It's an excellent manual for the intermediate to advanced craftsman, with a focus on technique rather than projects. Great tips concerning joint strength and troubleshooting are equally valuable.
VERDICT Highly recommended for any serious woodworker.
